iPhone wallpaperI considered an iPhone but at the time my contract renewed they were still lacking in a few basic functions I wanted (which they now have!).
I ended up with a SE Xperia which I love, the 800x480 screen is fantastic for wallpapers, of which I have ma...
A Week in Tokyo 19I hear ya! I've got all the Newtype USAs taking up rude amounts of room. I wonder what they go for on ebay....
Leaning figures are a pain. I got back from the Glastonbury Festival to find my 1/4 Yuki about to jump off the shelf!
Mounted her by h...
A Week in Tokyo 19All these photos just remind me that I was in Japan in April, and now I'm not :(
...always appreciated though.
I have a media center laptop hooked up to my home cinema system in the living room. I archive the shows my 'comrades' have recorded for...
Why JapanI love gaming, anime, manga, technology, Asian cinema, japanese pop culture, 91 people doing Hare Hare Yukai in the middle of the road, beer vending machines, free tissues, onigiri. All this, and more is why I (and lots of other people I'm sure) lo...
Seijin no HiThis April I'll be 35 (officially), but when I look at other people my age I always think they seem older. Either I'm immature or they're boring old farts.... I think they're farts :)
Also, I'll be in Japan this year for my birthday! What's a good...
Broadband in JapanI get about 15 mbps download when connected to my Giganews account, yet I only get about 7 mbps on the Speedtest site! Hmmmm..
I pay £38 month which is a lot, but everything costs load in the uk.
Apparently they're trialing 50mbps soon :)
Police Hunt OtakuThey're not looking for weapons at all!
They're probably too scared to buy grot mags so thought "otakus wax-the-dolphin a lot, they must always carry 'art pamplets' we'll just confiscate theirs!"
That's what my old Maths teacher used to do anyway.....
Japanese MusicImpressive, most impressive.
Don't have any vinyl myself, don't think I'd have room for it!
On the subject of music, I'm going to Japan for 4 weeks in April and my wife and I would love to see Ai Otsuka who is touring at this time. Does anyone kno...
Japanese MusicI always buy CDs, or DVDA/SACD if possible. All the CDs are then ripped to WMA Lossless. I've not really looked at downloadable music as there doesn't seem to be much available in lossless formats, legal or otherwise.
Japanese FartsHa! I remember seeing this before. The second part is here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqoSHLOKNcE - look out for the girl on the blob at -1:40. Probably some people out there that like that as well..... nasty!

Japan TravelWe're planning our next Japan holiday for April 2008, so plenty of warning for you!
It'd be great to meet some other people and hammer a few beers under the cherry blossoms.
